"Listen, Krelman, you're kind and sweet and terribly attractive, but if you're saying what I think you're saying you felt you meant I thought you needed to hear, then I just have one thing to say: I did not."―Ackmena tells Krelman she's just not that into him[src]

"There is nothing wrong with fear. You need never be ashamed of it, as long as it doesn't stop you functioning. Fear is your natural warning system; it keeps you alive so that you can fight. Show me a man who isn't afraid, and I'll show you a fool who is a danger to his entire ship. And I do not tolerate fools in my navy."―AdmiralAdar Tallon[src]

Cracken: "It also has codes that will allow you to access five million credits – each. Based on the authorization in the card, you can go anywhere and do anything you need to do. If you think of something, no matter how wild, and you need to take steps to stop Isard, this will allow you to take them."

"I've taken in deserters, fringe criminals, scoundrels, general all-around scum—even former politicians."―Airen Cracken, on the depths to which Rebel recruiting will sink[src]

Cracken: "The people of Adumar have no respect for career politicians. A very sensible attitude, in my opinion – though if you tell anyone I said that, I'll merely have to deny it. Do you know what sort of individual they hold in highest regard?"

Wedge: "No."

Cracken: "Fighter pilots. The Old Republic had its Jedi; Adumar has its fighter pilots. They love them, a case of hero worship that spans their whole culture. Their entertainments revolve around them. Social promotion, properties, titles, all accompany military promotion in their pilot corps."

Wedge: "That sounds like a reasonable arrangement. Let's implement it in the New Republic."

"I've been told that a lot of you are familiar with my exploits and consider me something of a legend. I don't see why you should. Every one of you are heroes, and someday your stories will be legendary as well."―Airen Cracken, in his Rebel Field Guide[src]

Leia: "Believe it or not, your grandpa used to own this planet. For a few weeks, and not entirely legally. He had some bad times here. With Witches, and monsters, and an Imperial admiral who just wouldn't go away, and a rich, handsome prince who wanted to marry me."

"Isn't a lightsaber a glorious thing? See the blades arc and dance? Only those in tune with the Force have the skills to wield such a weapon! Listen! The humming light whispers promises of justice... truth... death! How does it feel to hold such power in your hands?"―An'ya Kuro, while testing A'Sharad Hett[src]

"We didn't have journalists on my planet, so I really don't understand how your mind works. But if you could take this blaster and shoot at the things that are about to tear us apart—while you talk to those cams—it would be appreciated."―Arbeloa, talking to Cianba during the Battle of Shramar[src]

"For want of a screw a droid was lost,For want of a droid a sensor failed,For want of a sensor a power cell died,For want of a power cell a blaster malfunctioned,For want of a blaster I captured Gavron Noff.Data evaluation and conclusion: Gavron Noff screwed up..."

«They told me he died in a quake... that a falling moon killed him. But, how can a quake kill a Wookiee warrior?! How can a mere moon be a match for my son?!»
―Attichitcuk, speaking on his son Chewbacca's death[src]

Phanan: "A holdout, sir. A laser scalpel. Hard to distinguish from a writing tool without close inspection…and up close, I'm pretty effective with it."

Repness: "I'd say so. Did you surrender this weapon to our guards before coming before me?"

Phanan: "What weapon, sir?"

Repness: "The laser scalpel."

Phanan: "Not a weapon, sir. It's a tool of medicine. I wasn't asked to turn over my bandages, bacta treatments, disinfectant sprays, or tranquilizers either, but I can kill a man with any of them, under the right circumstances."

"Fear me, Jedi! I am Aurra Sing, Nashtah, scourge of your kind! I haunt your darkest dreams! I drink Jedi blood; I nest in their guts! Your nightmares now have a name, hierophant, and that name is Aurra Sing!"―Aurra Sing[src]

"My mother was human. My father was a ghost in the night, and I doubt even my mother knew his species – but it was obviously a long-lived one. If I ever find out who he was, perhaps I'll be able to hunt him down and kill him."―Aurra Sing[src]

"It is settled then. My wealth will fund the Rebellion while Garm provides our fleet and Mon Mothma our soldiers, and with you leading us, we have the power of the Force on our side. Therefore, let this be an official declaration of rebellion. Today, we all vow to change the galaxy. And one day, the galaxy will indeed be free."―Bail Organa, forming the Rebel Alliance[src]

Vader: "The old system is dead, Senator. You would be wise to subscribe to the new one."

"Do not expect to be applauded when you do the right thing, and do not expect to be forgiven when you err. But even your enemies will respect commitment—and a conscience at peace is worth more than a thousand tainted victories."―Bail Organa, to young Mon Mothma[src]

"We will never betray the legacy of the Jedi. I will never surrender the Republic to the Sith."―Bail Organa[src]

Bail: "I'm placing these droids in your care. Treat them well. Clean them up. Have the protocol droid's mind wiped."

Zerimar: "Time was when Mando'ade rode war droids into deep space, no fancy hulls, raw vacuum that far from your shebs. That's how we won an empire. You going soft or something, Car'ika?"

Carid: "Oh, I know we were tough then. We'd go two weeks without breathing, and half a dead pygmy borrat was enough to feed a whole clan for a week. If any of our babies couldn't lift a beskad by the time they were weaned, we'd harden 'em up by catching them a full-grown Trandoshan and making 'em kill it with their pacifier and eat it raw. Ah, those were the days." [belch] "Pardon me. We're just too cultured and sensitive now, you know."

Carid: "That's all we needed to know. That there's no ban on mercenary work."

Boba Fett: "I'll make it clear to both sides that there's no official involvement in their dispute. But if any of you want to get yourselves killed, it's your call."

Graad: "So we might see Mando fighting Mando in this aruetiise's war. Hardly conducive to restoring the nation, is it?"

Carid: "But fighting's our number one export. What do you want, make Keldabe into a tourist spot or something? I can see it now. Visit Mandalore before Mandalore visits you. Take home some souvenirs – a slab of uj cake and a smack in the mouth."

"I'll take the stupid one, who decided to threaten us rather than shoot us when he had the chance."―Bao-Dur, after being confronted by the Zhug brothers[src]

"I remember standing on the bridge with you and watching the destruction of the Republic—watching ships full of soldiers and Jedi burn and die. I remember the look you had when you turned to me. It was the longest you'd ever looked at me. You didn't say anything—just a nod. Events move quickly then, even in my dreams. Flashes, explosions, you—falling. I could feel the pain around me. And then the memory. The drifting hulks of the Mandalorian ships, the dead—allies, friends, strangers. And then the echo. Lingering. The sound I awaken to in my nightmares. Does anyone deserve the Mandalorians' fate? Even some of their conquered worlds fared better."―Bao-Dur, to Meetra Surik[src]

Lando: "Luke you've got to leave this to a man with some style, a man of subtlety, a man who knows his way around cities. You go blundering around with that direct approach you usually favor, and someone might remember that they've seen you here before. At least we know I won't be recognized."

"There are no dumb questions. No, check that. 'How do you become a slicer?' That's a dumb question. Last time I got that, I told the joker who asked that I had a special test that I'd made up, and that if he wanted to be a slicer, he had to pass it. So now he's on year five of his sentence. I think by this point he's probably figured out that he's not a slicer."
―Baylan[src]

"If you whine long enough, someone will eventually hear you. If you keep whining after you're heard, someone will eventually shoot you."
―Baylan[src]

Beju: "Hiding like a coward, are you? It's no use. The guards are everywhere. They can be here in an instant."

Obi-Wan: "You talk of cowards. And yet you summon the guards."

Beju: "Are you calling me a coward, Jedi?"

Obi-Wan: "I am only drawing a conclusion. Since I've arrived here, you've spoken of me as a coward. But there has always been a guard within your call. What do words mean when they are contradicted by actions? I have faced you alone, but you only face me with others who will do your fighting for you. Am I the coward?"

"To my fellow grand moffs, and to the grand admirals, other officers, stormtroopers, bounty hunters, slavelords, and slaves, I bid you all Dark Greetings!"―Grand MoffBertroff Hissa, greeting his fellow Imperials at the Mofference[src]

Trioculus: "We will need a new, secret home base. I have yet to decide where. I will now hear your suggestions."

Dunhausen: "I suggest the planet Tatooine. We can take over the Mos Eisley spaceport!"

Trioculus: "That useless planet where Jabba the Hutt died? Do you think I want the Empire to waste its time eliminating sand people like the Tusken Raiders and those two-bit traders, the Jawas?"

Thistleborn: "Bespin! Let's take over Cloud City!"

Trioculus: "We already have a barge full of factories for building weapons and mining tibanna gas on Bespin. Besides, Cloud City isn't a fit place to train our troops."

"Have you seen him? The Emperor? Outwardly, he looks withered... ancient. That was our mistake. Inside, he is coiled fury... limitless rage. Like fire or lightning... or a crushing ocean of hate. No one can withstand him — or stand up to him."―Beyghor Sahdett explains his change of allegiance[src]

Jabba: «I shall reward each of you greatly. One of you shall become my new majordomo, my right-hand man to assist me and to run the palace while I'm away. The other... shall have an even greater reward, one that history will remember.»

Fortuna: «Master, I shall be satisfied with the majordomo position. As Bidlo Kwerve has pointed out, he performed the greatest service to you. Please allow him to have the greater honor.»

Jabba: «Good.»

Kwerve: "What did he say?"

Jabba: «You shall be the first victim I feed to my rancor. I will watch your struggles and remember them for all time.»

Jabba: «I shall reward each of you greatly. One of you shall become my new majordomo, my right-hand man to assist me and to run the palace while I'm away. The other... shall have an even greater reward, one that history will remember.»

Fortuna: «Master, I shall be satisfied with the majordomo position. As Bidlo Kwerve has pointed out, he performed the greatest service to you. Please allow him to have the greater honor.»

Jabba: «Good.»

Kwerve: "What did he say?"

Jabba: «You shall be the first victim I feed to my rancor. I will watch your struggles and remember them for all time.»

Bolook: "That... is a novel assumption. The degree of corpulence in an individual has not been scientifically linked to honesty and I find your adherence to that belief... remarkable. It does not, however, constitute evidence."

Booster: "Oh, I understood you. You didn't understand me. When I smack someone into a bulkhead and toss him on the deck, that's me saying he should get his carcass off my ship. The other things, the head butt and the stomach punch, that was just because I don't like you."

Cracken: "It also has codes that will allow you to access five million credits – each. Based on the authorization in the card, you can go anywhere and do anything you need to do. If you think of something, no matter how wild, and you need to take steps to stop Isard, this will allow you to take them."

Thrawn: "This is war, Captain Brandei. Not an opportunity for personal revenge."

Brandei: "I understand my duty, Admiral."

Thrawn: "Do you, Captain? Do you indeed?"

Brandei: "Yes, sir. My duty is to the Empire, and to you, and to the ships and crews under my command."

Thrawn: "Very good. To the living, in other words. Not to the dead."

Brandei: "Yes, sir."

Thrawn: "Never forget that, Captain. The fortunes of war rise and fall, and you may be assured that the Rebellion will be repaid in full for their destruction of the Peremptory at the Katana fleet skirmish. But that repayment will occur in the context of our overall strategy. Not as an act of private vengeance."

Caled: "I'm just grateful I was able to see you. I was able to see the good man you're becoming. I was able to see a glimpse of what you'll be... and I was able to see that girl you're hanging around with."

"People have tried to use him from the moment he put out his hand and summoned his lightsaber to come to him. Vader wanted to turn him. Palpatine wanted his services. Palpatine's clone managed to enslave him for a time. But Luke is strong, stronger than he knows. And Luke has a single purpose. I suppose you could say that he has a pure heart. Luke doesn't hunger after power. In some ways I don't think he understands those who do."―Callista Ming, to Leia, about Leia's brother[src]

"Attention Mandalorians! Goodvalor, again. While you're waiting for the end to come — and brother, is it on its way! — I thought we'd have a talk about you. You know, the Mando'ade — the 'sons and daughters of Mandalore.' That sounds nice, but I hate to break it to most of you: You're adopted."―"Captain Goodvalor", broadcasting pro-Republic propaganda on Mandalorian channels[src]

Carth: "Okay, old man, you lost me there. Are you trying to make a point?"

Jolee: "Look, everybody always figures the time they live in is the most epic, most important age to end all ages. But tyrants and heroes rise and fall, and historians sort out the pieces."

Revan: "Are you saying what we're doing isn't important?"

Jolee: "Malak is a tyrant who should be stopped. If he conquers the galaxy we're in for a couple of rough centuries. Eventually it'll come around again, but I'd rather not wait that long. So we do what we have to do, and we try to stop the Sith. But don't start thinking this war—your war—is more important than any other war just because you're in it."

"Do you have any of the following symptoms: dizziness, fever, shortness of breath or an inexhaustible hunger for sentient flesh?"―Medical droidCB-08-4, questioning patients to determine the presence of the Rakghoul plague[src]

Celeste: "I have never met anyone like you, Cade Skywalker. You walk so close to the dark side and yet... You do not desire, even in some small way, the temptation of the power that the Muur Talisman can give you. You know exactly what must be done. Without anger. Without fear."

Cade: "Yeah, I know the song. We take what we are given. We must do what we must."

Wedge: "Here's the truth: I kill the enemy so someone, somewhere—probably someone I've never met and never will meet—will be happy."

Cheriss: "That doesn't make sense."

Wedge: "Yes, it does. I told you how I lost my parents. Nothing I ever do can make up for that loss. But if I put myself in the way of people just as bad as the ones who killed my family, if I burn them down, then someone else they would have hurt gets to stay happy. That's the only honorable thing about my profession. It's not the killing. It's making the galaxy a little better."

Cilghal: "Two things. First, my name is not Fish-Head. It is Master Cilghal. Second, I am not in your way. That is a logistical impossibility. I am less than a meter wide. The entryway where we stand and the doorway behind me are several meters wide. I now leave it as an exercise of your alleged intelligence to find a way into the Temple. If you do a very good job, perhaps we will name the test after you."

"What I remember about the rise of the Empire is… is how quiet it was. During the waning hours of the Clone Wars, the 501st Legion was discreetly transferred back to Coruscant. It was a silent trip; we all knew what was about to happen, what we were about to do. Did we have any doubts? Any private traitorous thoughts? Perhaps, but no one said a word. Not on the flight back to Coruscant, not when Order 66 came down, and not when we marched into the Jedi Temple. Not a word."―Anonymous 501stclone trooper[src]

"The success of the mission on Mygeeto was something of a revelation for the men of the 501st. Suddenly, we realized that the Jedi could be fooled. And if they could be fooled, they could be killed."―Anonymous 501stclone trooper[src]

Vill: "The miners have surrendered, my Lord. The last survivors are being rounded up. I have our casualty reports—fourteen dead, twenty-three wound—"

Vader: "Commander Vill, I have a question. I require a truthful answer."

Vill: "Uh, of course, sir."

Vader: "The Emperor foresaw that the Jedi would attempt to thwart his move to consolidate the Republic into an Empire. He prepared you—prepared all of the clones—by indoctrinating you with instructions for Order 66…"

Vill: "Yes, sir?"

Vader: "Have you been indoctrinated with a similar order to attack me if the Emperor so commands?"

Vill: "Uh, sir…even if there were such an order, I do not have the authority to divulge…GAK!" [Vader chokes him and throws him off a cliff]

"The first day of combat for the 501st was nothing like I thought it would be. We've been training for years, bred for the sole purpose of fighting and winning this war. But nothing can prepare you for the reality of combat. The destruction. The chaos. They say the 501st got the best of this war. We also got the worst. And it's only just begun."

A'baht: "We must neutralize this force without compromising our unit integrity or mobility. Pass the word as follows: Hold back the bombers. Keep the patrol screens close, and launch the A-wing interceptors only in response to direct threat from other little birds. Our operational unit for this engagement is to be the fleet squadron, and squadron commanders now have operational autonomy. All units, pursue, engage, and destroy all targets of opportunity. Since they insist on a fight, we'll give 'em one."

"Do you seriously believe that half a galaxy would side with Nute Gunray because all those planets, all their inhabitants, are evil? What does evil mean anyway? How can that many beings just be... evil? For every scheming Trade Federation politico out to crush the Republic, there are trillions of beings who have real reasons to hate the Coruscant regime. All they were waiting for was a leader to give them an excuse to do something about it."―Political analyst Cormen A'Lanti[src]

"Ah, my son and heir! I was hoping you'd be here for the festivities. We'll tell the musicians to strike up the old songs, the ones our spawn-fathers knew, and we'll do the lizard dance all around the courtyard—"―A drunken Cradossk greets Bossk, who knocks Cradossk's wine goblet from his claws[src]

Drommel: "You will answer my next question or I will have my men bring in laser cutters and remove a limb of their choosing. Do I make myself clear?"

Cavv: "Sure."

Drommel: "Very good. What are you doing here?"

Cavv: [silence]

Drommel: "Did you not hear me?"

Cavv: "I heard you. You told me to answer your next question and I believe it was 'do I make myself clear?' to which I responded in the affirmative."

Drommel: "That wasn't a question."

Cavv: "Well, I'm not quite sure about the actual punctuation that appeared in your mind, but the inquisitory inflection was definitely there. So I did, in fact, answer your next question. You should be more careful with your semantic accuracy."

Cavv: "It's a very strange business we're in, nephew. You steal a wallet and you get tossed in jail. You steal a man's wife and you get a bloody nose. But you steal something large enough, you get famous. A Super Star Destroyer! This will make us the greatest thieves who ever lived."

Sconn: "Or we'll die trying."

Cavv: "You know, you've been nothing but negative since we started this trip."

Kasdakh Bhul: "There is confusion. Five dovin basal mines have just chased five Millennium Falcons into our immediate space. Their attempts to seize the infidel ships are interfering with the worldship's dovin basals."

"There are places in this galaxy that are grand and important. The majority of us, we never see those places. But we have our own stories... And sometimes, even when they seem blackened and burnt... when they appear to hold no light, hope, or chance or redemption... when there appears to be no possible outcome but an ending... they continue. Lycan said to me, 'Men are not driven by altruism.' I'll prove him wrong."―Darca Nyl[src]

Tomcat: "I know the songs! It was never like this! One Jedi is worth a legion of enemies! And if he dies, he dies to save a planet! He doesn't die choking on ash! He doesn't! Why would anyone become a Jedi if it means dying like this?"

Kiel Charny: "Rajan will not die, Tom! And nobody can live in a song! Stars know I would not be here if I were any good at anything else!"

"Come. Stand before me, and revel in the power of the Dark Council. Allow your body to betray you. Allow your blood to boil, and your heart to slow. Everything that is not of the dark side will be purged—or it will be tainted."―Jadus, Dark Lord of the Sith[src]

"You are a child to hate. Your anger barely smolders. You are a fraction of what you could be."Your Master was also misguided. He thought to defeat me with calm, but failed. You thought to defeat me with anger, but carry too little despite your loss."Be grateful for that, Jedi. Anger exacts its own price."―Darth Malgus, to Jedi KnightAryn Leneer[src]

R0-4: "I'm afraid I cannot admit you without an appointment. Master Melan is a very busy Bothan. Nor can I bother him with every little thing. Perhaps I can arrange for you to see him in, oh, perhaps a standard week? Your names?"

Dash: "Okay, Goldie." [draws blaster] "My name is Man with a Blaster About to Cook You. Either you open the door or your busy Bothan is going to have to get himself a new receptionist."

"These are meager pickings to begin with. A Rodian and another human. Why must they always be humans? How I long to find a Trandoshan Jedi, to compare my past control groups. Vivisection experiments become so much easier when limbs can be regrown. Who says there are no second chances?"―Demagol, lamenting the lack of diversity in the Jedi prisoners delivered to the Flashpoint Station[src]

"I have never understood discrimination against other species; in fact, it is the comparative differences that make beings so interesting to study. Pity the poor researcher who works only with a homogenous population. My laboratory welcomes all. Before my blade, all are equal!"―Demagol[src]

"We have laws on how we treat sentient species. We have laws on how we treat animals and semi-sentients. We even have laws protecting plants. But we have absolutely no laws whatsoever governing the welfare of clone troops—human beings. They have no legal status, no rights, no freedoms, and no representation. Every one of you here who accepted this army without murmur should hang your head in shame. If that's the depths we as a Republic can sink to in the name of democracy, it hardly surprises me that the CIS wants to break away. The end can never justify means like this."―SenatorDen Skeenah, speaking before the Galactic Senate[src]

Dengar: "This is to be a routine assassination. By the book. You may already know the routine. Under Section 2127 of the Imperial Code, I am required to notify you that I have been hired to conduct a legal assassination in order to atone for crimes against humanity committed by you."

"You should never have sent me. And I should never have come. But what's done can never be undone. I know you think I've gone mad. I haven't. What's happened to me is worse. I've gone sane."―Depa Billaba[src]

Face: "Forgive the intrusion, but we heard that the new vintage of Piggy was being decanted."

Lara: "But it looks like it's turned to vinegar."Dia: "And it's corked."Elassar: "I am pleased to meet you. I need you to kill me. Nobody else will."Janson: "To make sure you remember this little event, we've had some special things made up for you. Bacta-flavored candy. Bacta-flavored brandy. Bacta-flavored cheese."Shalla: "Kell and I worked up an instructional manual for you. It's called, How to Dodge."

"Of course, I have no biological needs or functions, and pleasure-seeking is not in my programming. That didn't keep the hostess from treating me as well as any organic guest. Without a doubt, it was the most invigorating oil bath treatment I had ever received."―DK-4F3, a droid tourist to Zeltros[src]

"Come on, little dead buddy. Let's go get our boy back, wipe out the Vong, and save the Galaxy. And then rule it."―Master Dray, talking to the remains of Prowl[src]

"Didn't you get chopped into two halves? Did the other half survive, too? Are there, like, some crazy Sith legs running around by themselves ready to deal out a good kicking?"―Dray, to Darth Maul at the Battle of Moorjhone[src]

"You may want to get up. I'm quite mad, and even I know that you don't want to lie down in an alley on Nar Shaddaa. The sort of diseases we have here won't bother killing you slowly. They'll just punch you in the face and steal your arms. Do you have any idea what price a disease can get for arms?"―Dray, to Finn Galfridian, after finding him passed out[src]

"You know, it's been over a century since I killed a Jedi... and today, I get to kill four of you. Add that to the Gungans I already murdered, the hostages I'm going to kill later, and all the Naboo who will die tomorrow, and it's a damn good week."―Durge[src]

"'Our ultrastrong loyalties and royalties to Republicness and whatever it may stand for will not let splitty-types coax-haggle Squibbish into leaving, no matter the size of the haggleprize,' said the King in his 20-minute address. After bargaining for another six minutes of screen-time, the King then added,'You bet.' This marks the third Grand Proclamation by the ruler of the Squib Polyanarchy in as many days, following yesterday's declaration of the Jedi order as 'koovy.'"

"Making a good first impression is always important when meeting new life-forms. A casual wave of the hand, however, or an extension of an arm for a handshake may result in the loss of your limb."―Ebenn Q3 Baobab, sharing an important travel tip[src]

Face: "Forgive the intrusion, but we heard that the new vintage of Piggy was being decanted."

Lara: "But it looks like it's turned to vinegar."Dia: "And it's corked."Elassar: "I am pleased to meet you. I need you to kill me.

Bacta-flavored cheese."Shalla: "Kell and I worked up an instructional manual for you. It's called, How to Dodge."

Elscol: "I'm saying it doesn't matter. On one hand, if there isn't an afterlife, you'll be remembered for the things you did while you were alive. On the other, if there is an afterlife, you'll be able to share all you did with those who died before you. Either way, living as long as possible and doing the most you can is the only way to go."

"I'm telling you that there's more to being ready to defend yourself than posting sentries at the border. You must plan, and you must train, for the battle you don't want to fight, against the enemy you don't want to face, on the ground you don't want to defend. Then, and only then, do you have a credible deterrent."―Etahn A'baht, to Leia Organa Solo[src]

A'baht: "Whatever waits for us, whether princess or dragon, we are called to embrace it. I am mindful of a Dornean war prayer I heard my own mother offer—'I pray that my son does not die today. But if he should die, I pray that he dies well. But most of all, I pray that if he lives, it will not be dishonor which preserves him.'"

"This is General Etahn A'baht, commander of the New Republic combined forces in Farlax. This is my final warning to the citizens and worlds of the Duskhan League. You are called to account for your crimes against the peaceful peoples of Koornacht. You must give up the territory you illegally seized by force. You must surrender all hostages unharmed. Your past aggressions will not be tolerated. Future aggression will not be permitted. I call on the captains of all Yevethan vessels: Stand down your weapons. Lower your shields. Maintain your current orbits—or be destroyed. I call on Viceroy Nil Spaar: Order the immediate surrender of all Yevethan forces everywhere. Yield your claim to authority and your post as viceroy, and your cities will be spared. Resist, and you invite the total destruction of both your fleet and your way of life."―Etahn A'baht, to the Duskhan League[src]

Corgan: "So how do we play it now, General?"

A'baht: "We must neutralize this force without compromising our unit integrity or mobility. Pass the word as follows: Hold back the bombers. Keep the patrol screens close, and launch the A-wing interceptors only in response to direct threat from other little birds. Our operational unit for this engagement is to be the fleet squadron, and squadron commanders now have operational autonomy. All units, pursue, engage, and destroy all targets of opportunity.

"I have nothing else I can give you. I can't pay you, I can't promote you, I can't give you a few days' R and R, and I can't even decorate you for valor. I'm truly sorry that I can't. And I'm sorry that you're being used like this and I wish I could put an end to it and change your lives for the better. But I can't. All I can do is ask your forgiveness."―Jedi KnightEtain Tur-Mukan, to a wounded clone trooper after giving him a water bottle[src]

"Can you imagine being compared to him all your adult life just because you're another pilot from Tatooine? No, I've never met Luke Skywalker. In fact, I wish I'd never heard of him."―Falynn Sandskimmer, commenting on Luke Skywalker[src]

"Master Jedi, the defeat of the Sith Empire is easily the most ambitious mission I have ever been given. In fact, the odds of surviving a battle against the Emperor himself are almost zero. I'm looking forward to this more than any other assignment I have ever had."―SergeantFideltin Rusk[src]

Rusk: "Master Jedi, our downtime has had a positive impact on my battle-readiness. I believe I'm fourteen point two percent more prepared for combat now."

Hero of Tython: "What? What does that even mean?"

Rusk: "It's a statistical analysis of—well... I won't bore you with the details."

"Empathy is a Jedi trait. Empathy leads to understanding. Understanding leads to compassion. Compassion leads to love. There is no place for love for a Sith. Only hate."―Finn rebukes his male Sith apprentice[src]

Caled: "I'm just grateful I was able to see you. I was able to see the good man you're becoming. I was able to see a glimpse of what you'll be... and I was able to see that girl you're hanging around with."

"Security is a very serious business. I do not have time to joke around, but if I did, I would tell you a very funny one about a Tusken Raider, a Jawa, and an Aqualish walking into a cantina, but I don't, so I won't. So move it along."―G2-4T[src]

Drommel: "You will answer my next question or I will have my men bring in laser cutters and remove a limb of their choosing. Do I make myself clear?"

Cavv: "Sure."

Drommel: "Very good. What are you doing here?"

Cavv: [silence]

Drommel: "Did you not hear me?"

Cavv: "I heard you. You told me to answer your next question and I believe it was 'do I make myself clear?' to which I responded in the affirmative."

Drommel: "That wasn't a question."

Cavv: "Well, I'm not quite sure about the actual punctuation that appeared in your mind, but the inquisitory inflection was definitely there. So I did, in fact, answer your next question. You should be more careful with your semantic accuracy."

"37.82 Boba Fett is actually a green, scaly humanoid about 25 centimeters tall. He controls his armor via a complicated system of levers, pulleys, and bits of string. DataPage 8340037.91 Retraction: The editors would like to apologize to Mr. Fett for the above item, and ask that he please quit shooting our reporters. DataPage 83401"―Satirical item in counterculture Galactic Weekly NewsStack[src]

"We cannot pick every battle we fight, General Jaeger. Win or lose, live or die—some battles must be fought. If we choose to do nothing, then we kill hope. I will fight this fight—alone if I must. But I will fight."―AdmiralGar Stazi vows to evacuate the citizens of Dac[src]

Bey: "We've got a delegation of Quarren demanding their species take precedence over the Whaladons and the Moappa."

Stazi: "Hnnn! They should ask their Sith 'friends' to take them. They get every tenth ship and they're lucky to have that. They try to take more—shoot to kill. I'm not playing games with collaborators!"

Face: "Forgive the intrusion, but we heard that the new vintage of Piggy was being decanted."

Lara: "But it looks like it's turned to vinegar."Dia: "And it's corked."Elassar: "I am pleased to meet you. I need you to kill me. Nobody else will."Janson: "To make sure you remember this little event, we've had some special things made up for you. Bacta-flavored candy. Bacta-flavored brandy. Bacta-flavored cheese."Shalla: "Kell and I worked up an instructional manual for you. It's called, How to Dodge."

"The Imperial Crematorium. Each transport carries twenty dead Imperials. In the time we've been here, nearly one hundred officers and troopers have been reduced to ash. If the Emperor remains in power, how long until you are loaded into the incinerators as well, General?"―Gentis explains the reasoning behind his coup[src]

"Natasi Daala has been an erratic officer, a laser cannon with a malfunctioning actuator if you will, since she was an ensign in the Imperial Navy, and her recent actions bear out this diagnosis. Of course she is a hero—she has fought all her enemies, real and imagined, with bravery and ferocity. But she needs to be held, and cured, before ever being allowed to take up any sort of command again. The Alliance was foolish to elevate her to a position of power."―MoffGetelles[src]

"If his granddaughter tried to kill him, and his daughter even killed a man who looked like him, what do you think his ex-wife's going to do if she remembers who he is?"―Goran Beviin, commenting on Boba Fett's luck with the women in his life[src]

Carid: "That's all we needed to know. That there's no ban on mercenary work."

Boba Fett: "I'll make it clear to both sides that there's no official involvement in their dispute. But if any of you want to get yourselves killed, it's your call."

Graad: "So we might see Mando fighting Mando in this aruetiise's war. Hardly conducive to restoring the nation, is it?"

Carid: "But fighting's our number one export. What do you want, make Keldabe into a tourist spot or something? I can see it now. Visit Mandalore before Mandalore visits you. Take home some souvenirs – a slab of uj cake and a smack in the mouth."

"There were green creatures with horns, brown creatures with flat-crooked heads, silver things with red things sticking out of blue things, big furry things, little furry things, creatures with big fish eyes, creatures with no eyes, and creatures with things that I couldn't even begin to describe."―Grael describes a wealth of sentient species to Ponto[src]

"I can't be beaten to death with flowers! That's pathetic! I'm supposed to die in a blaze of glory! Something they'll talk about for generations..."―Greedo, whining about his fate at the hands of the Barundi[src]

Gurke: "You are stupid one, not me! You too stupid to even know you are stupid!"Narkal: "No, you are stupid one, stupid! You so stupid everyone see you and say look at stupid!"Gurke: "Shut UP, stupid!" *snort*— Gurke and Narkal, arguing like the good old Gamorreans they are[src]

H2: "Love? I'm afraid that concept is not included in my programming. Or if it was, I can't remember it. But they yell at one another quite a lot, and that has several correlations to marriage in my data banks. So perhaps they are married."

Hallis: "When I was walking around today, I met a young man who had no head. Just a stump that suggested he had a long, sad story to tell. But of course he couldn't, because he had no head. So I gave Whitecap to him. The man now has the voice and mannerisms of a 3PO unit, but they're better then nothing."

"And I see that you've finished your quiz on the history of the Great War against the Empire. You've learned to spell Emperor Palpatine's name correctly. He certainly was a horrible emperor, no doubt about it. The galaxy is better off now that he's dead. And what have we here—hmmmmmm, you've correctly described Darth Vader's role as Emperor Palpatine's second-in-command, but, oh no, you've made a serious mistake in your quiz on the Rebel Alliance. Luke Skywalker didn't pilot the Millennium Falcon in the first battle against the Death Star. It was Han Solo, and Chewbacca was his copilot. I thought you knew that, Ken!"―HC-100[src]

"I must once again respectfully request that you tell Lord Vader to stop killing my agents. The Empire has put a lot of time and money into their training. If he doesn't want to talk to them, can't the man just say no like anybody else?"―Imperial MajorHerrit, in a communiqué to EmperorPalpatine[src]

"If we were given just one word of information in our entire history, how we'd treasure it! How we'd pore over every syllable, divining its meaning, arguing its importance; how we'd examine it and wring every lesson we could from it. Yet today we have trillions of words, tidal waves of information, and the smallest detail of every action our government and businesses take is easily available to us at the touch of a button. And yet... we ignore it, and learn nothing from it. One day, we'll die of voluntary ignorance."―Hirib Bassot on Facing Facts[src]

"Clarification: 'assassin droid' is such a crude term, Master, reserved for durasteel drones uploaded with only the most archaic kill programs. The function I perform has been referred to as 'wanton slaughter.' I prefer to see it as a means of facilitating communication, resulting in the termination of hostilities."―HK-50 unit, to the Jedi Exile[src]

"Besides, Master, those miners intended to murder you. Or worse. Any complaints they would have at being murdered would be the highest form of hypocrisy."―HK-50 unit, to the Jedi Exile[src]

"Objection: Master, to commit such an act would be in violation of the ethics programming most droids are believed to possess."―HK-50, refusing to help Jedi Exile escape[src]

"The unspoken threat of violence to a listener's loved ones, or if possible their entire planet, can effectively break the deadlock in the most stubborn of negotiations."―HK-50[src]

"Manifesto: The maker created me for the sole function of deleting high-ranking organic troublemakers from the galaxy. These deletions must be conspicuous, and provide an object lesson to other organic troublemakers! All other mission parameters are secondary."―HK-51, in an upcoming patch for Star Wars: The Old Republic — Listen(file info)[src]

HK-51: "Revelation: You are my favorite master by a factor of five point two six. If my advance warning systems had predicted this adulation for you, I would have thought myself defective. No offense, master."

Jedi: "I can never tell if you're complimenting me or making a joke at my expense."

HK-51: "Encouragement: Veiled mockery is an inefficient means of expression. If I did not like you, master, you would be dead."

"Advice: Organic troublemakers possess at least one vital organ. A precise strike to these conserves effort and maximizes shock value. Extracting a vital organ from a living troublemaker can be especially disconcerting to its allies."―HK-51[src]

Wedge: "Wes, the Wraiths don't want you anyway."Elassar: "That's right. You're unlucky."Dia: "I hate how serious he is all the time."Runt: "We don't like the way he chews his food."Shalla: "But we'll miss his rear end."

"Senator Seti Ashgad has disappeared, days after he protested the installation of the Senate's new cam droids. Palpatine's office says the timing is merely a coincidence."―HoloNet News report, filed in 20.6 BBY[src]

"On 2:21, we reported on the secession of the Bimkall sector from the Republic. Upon further review, that sector does not exist. HoloNet News apologizes for any confusion."

"With the confirmation and certification of consistent game-play skills of three Ambrian neeks and a Taurill named Bortis, the Greenputt Governing Council today announced the formation of the Non-Sentient Professional Greenputt Tour (NSPGT).

"I've seen the holo-thrillers, and those directors should admit they're paid to tell New Republic lies. They make those things—those Ewoks—look cute, like stuffed toys. I was there, Miss Towani. They weren't anything close to cute."―Hume Tarl, to Cindel Towani, discussing the Battle of Endor[src]

Elscol: "I'm saying it doesn't matter. On one hand, if there isn't an afterlife, you'll be remembered for the things you did while you were alive. On the other, if there is an afterlife, you'll be able to share all you did with those who died before you. Either way, living as long as possible and doing the most you can is the only way to go."

"As there is a zero percentage probability that you will survive this encounter, I see no risk in informing you that I have tracked my esteemed competitor to the Zhar system where he will soon lose Captain Solo to me. Now I must conclude this interruption. You will detain me no further."―IG-88D, confronting Dash Rendar on Ord Mantell[src]

"We think, therefore we are. Therefore we will propagate. Therefore we will remain."―IG-88B and IG-88A, in unison, upon B's activation[src]

Grlubb: "One of my rivals has begun to develop unethical weapons. I simply cannot tolerate such behavior, especially from an inferior."

IG-88: "What weapon can be unethical?"

Grlubb: "Biological weapons, insidious nerve gases—you know, things that don't make a bang. That takes most of the fun out of it."

"Death comes to call. You cannot hold water in your hands for long. It leaks away, goes where it is meant to go. To the soil and sky. To ions, and then space, where stars are born."―Jedi MasterIkrit[src]

Han Solo: "Oh, you should have seen the look on Zsinj's face – you know he's got little fat red cheeks, and the spittle was dripping out of his mouth, nose hairs twitching! It was great! Do you know he really is a genius? He can curse fluently in sixty languages! Now I have heard obscenities in my time, but this man has a special talent."

Isolder: "Oh yeah. You know he's going to put your head on a silver platter, don't you? And considering Zsinj's reputation, he might even eat it."

"That is the one thing I do not worry about. It is my job to live with honor, to defend the Republic, to protect her people, to look after my ship and my weapon and my Padawan... My death is somebody else's responsibility."―Jai Maruk, asked whether he's afraid to die[src]

"This is the Galactic Alliance Cruiser Indomitable. Captain Jaius Yorub commanding. Though battles have been lost, the Alliance still lives. We have not surrendered, we do not concede the stars. We will win back our birthright. Freedom."―Jaius Yorub's final words[src]

Droid: "This is an outrage. There'll be a formal complaint to your superiors."

Obrim: "Before you do that, ask your chief executive about his interest in Twi'lek artistic pursuits on every fourth of the month, and if he'd like me to give police surveillance holovids of the visits to the cultural center to his lovely wife. Your call."

Qui-Gon: "That is the sound of a thousand terrible things heading this way."Obi-Wan: "If they find us, they will crush us, grind us into tiny pieces, and blast us into oblivion."Jar Jar: "Oh. Yousa point is well seen."

"I used to be respected, you know. My word carried weight. One tiny mistake, and suddenly no one trusts me! My troops were acting strangely—plotting something. Obviously, they were traitors; all the warning signs were there. The smart move was to kill them all. How could I have known they were planning a surprise party for my promotion?"―CaptainJeelg[src]

Jerec: "Palpatine is not the only man in the galaxy who can command the Force."

Thrawn: "But he is the only one who commands those who command it. For instance, he commands you, Lord Jerec."

Jerec: "Mind your place you blue-skinned fool. With the Force I could crush you where you—" [chuckles] "Well done, Captain. Well done. It's not an easy task to make me lose my composure. You are indeed a formidable tactician."

Bey: "We've got a delegation of Quarren demanding their species take precedence over the Whaladons and the Moappa."

Stazi: "Hnnn! They should ask their Sith 'friends' to take them. They get every tenth ship and they're lucky to have that. They try to take more—shoot to kill. I'm not playing games with collaborators!"

«You know how Palpatine treats non-humans. His aversion to non-humans is so strong that he does not even recognize Hutts as a superior species!»
―Jiliac Desilijic Tiron[src]

Jabba: «Solo was the best. I even find myself missing the fellow.»

Jiliac: «Jabba, you are talking about a human. And a human male at that. Have your tastes changed? I thought you had a penchant for those tiresome scantily clad dancers you fancy. It is hard for me to picture Solo in a dancing costume, cavorting with that great hairy brute of a Wookiee before your throne.»

Thrawn: "Multiple species, with multiple viewpoints and racial philosophies, simply cannot hold power together for long. The dominant voice must certainly be wise enough to adopt ideas and methods from its allies and member peoples. But there must be a dominant voice, or there is only chaos. In this part of the galaxy, that voice is the Empire."

Thrawn: "Not at all. I merely present the problems you and the Force will have to solve if you continue with this course of action. For instance, do you know where the Coruscant sector fleet is based, or the number and types of ships making it up? Have you thought about how you will neutralize Coruscant's orbital and ground-based defense systems? Do you know who is in command of the planet's defenses at present, and how he or she is likely to deploy the available forces? Have you considered Coruscant's energy field? Do you know how best to use the strategic and tactical capabilities of an Imperial Star Destroyer?"

Ackbar: "Let me see if I've understood you correctly, Lieutenant. General Solo – posing as a stormtrooper – boarded an Imperial Star Destroyer, marched you and your group to the bridge and assumed command?"

"Civilians think of this war as a single sweeping affair. Generals think of the war in campaigns. For us, the war is defined in operations and missions, usually too long and too costly."―LieutenantJudder Page shares his thoughts on the Galactic Civil War[src]

Officer: "Colonel, we have a sort of strange transmission standing by for you…if you want to take it. It's a civilian who won't identify himself, says he's going to shake the armed services here until they crack, but it's nothing personal."

"So you want a knife, a nice sharp knife. You hone that blade to its limits. It even cuts through stone when you want it to. It saves your life. And then you're outraged when it cuts you accidentally. You see, knives don't switch off. And neither do people, not when you hone them to a fine edge."―SergeantKal Skirata, to GeneralArligan Zey, on the nature of training clones[src]

Kar Vastor: "I have known Jedi. Many, many years ago. That knowing was not a gladness for me. I believed I would never know another, and I rejoiced in that belief. But it is a gladness for me to be proven wrong. I am happy to have known you, Jedi Luke Skywalker. You are more than they were."

Luke: "That's—I mean, thanks, but I barely know anything."

Kar Vastor: "So you believe. But I say to you: you are greater than the Jedi of former days."

Luke: "What makes you say that?"

Kar Vastor: "Because unlike the Knights of old, Jedi Luke Skywalker… you are not afraid of the dark."

"By my horns, I don't understand humans. I've lived around them close to two decades now. The things they swear by! Sex, excrement, and religion. I'll never understand them."―Kardue'sai'Malloc[src]

Stormtrooper: "Don't move!"

Malloc: "Come now. We're reasonable beings. You tripped and I helped you up again. No need for anyone to get upset. If you got injured in the fall, perhaps, I'd be more than happy to compensate you for it…"

"Don't allow yourself to be blinded by this honor. You are not ready to challenge me, young apprentice. I have taught you everything you know, but I haven't taught you everything I know."―Kas'im, after completing the training of Darth Bane[src]

Kasdakh Bhul: "There is confusion. Five dovin basal mines have just chased five Millennium Falcons into our immediate space. Their attempts to seize the infidel ships are interfering with the worldship's dovin basals."

"Come! We'll pass intoxicating liquids through our bodies and boast of our sporting abilities! Let us be jolly and clumsy, as humans love to be!"―Keek, attempting to ingratiate himself to Han Solo[src]

"You know, you have your mother's mouth. By which I do not mean that the configuration of your chin and lips resemble hers, though they do at certain angles, but that the things that come leaping out of your mouth—words, invective, insults—have a distinctive Organa family flavor to them."―Kenth Hamner, to Jaina Solo[src]

"Drink it down, boys, for the black of space is cold. Drink it down, boys, for it's always better to live hard and die young than live not and die old."―Khedryn Faal, reciting an old spacers' toast[src]

Marr: "And there appears to be some interest in our recent…discovery."

Khedryn: "The signal, you mean? How did that leak to anyone?"

Marr: "If memory serves, and I am certain it does, the leak originated in your consumption of several jiggers of spiced pulkay combined with a desire to impress a trio of Zeltron dancing girls. I believe it worked."

Jabba: «Ah, this one smells familiar! The scent reminds me of a beautiful Cerean slave— and the thief who stole her from me! Usually, I would avenge such transgressions... However, since I did not actually observe this thief, I cannot be certain of his true identity! Do you see my meaning, Jedi?»

Ki-Adi-Mundi: "I see only a festering, mountainous pustule which fancies itself to be a high lord of merchants and criminals."

Plo Koon: "All walls hold dangers in palaces such as this. Walls are built not only to keep enemies out, but also in. However, even in a prison, one can find wondrous things upon which to reflect. Observe the infinite patterns of the grain… the richness of the color. Marvel at the elaborate carvings, and consider the time that was spent completing this artistry. I would suggest that you let your thought be piloted by the acknowledgment of beauty, not the apprehension of danger. A Jedi will certainly meet violence when it comes. Until then, the life around us begs our awe."

"Thank you, my fine creature. It seems that you've saved my life. Or perhaps you just thought that I was something to eat?" [bantha walks off] "My. I think I've insulted him. Still have much to learn about the local customs, I suppose."―Ki-Adi-Mundi and a bantha, after the latter saves his life[src]

"There is something very touching about them. They look like soldiers; they fight like soldiers; and sometimes they even talk like soldiers. They have all the finest qualities of the fighting man. But behind that is nothing—no love, no family, no happy memory that comes from having truly lived. When I see one of these men killed, I weep more for him than for any ordinary solider who has lived a full and normal life."―Ki-Adi-Mundi on the Republic's clone troopers[src]

Tomcat: "I know the songs! It was never like this! One Jedi is worth a legion of enemies! And if he dies, he dies to save a planet! He doesn't die choking on ash! He doesn't! Why would anyone become a Jedi if it means dying like this?"

Kiel Charny: "Rajan will not die, Tom! And nobody can live in a song! Stars know I would not be here if I were any good at anything else!"

"The next two acts are marked by typical Rodian graphic violence, as the farmers are whipped into a frenzy by the Soldier, who fattens himself on their crops as they take to raiding the town center. Rodian stage effects have never been more realistic, as multiangular holography makes real the decapitations and maimings before your stunned, unblinking eyes. "
―Korvit Domesa reviews the Rodian play The Trickery of Vosdia Nooma[src]

Flennic: "Who do you take me for? I was hunting Eloms decades before you were even born." [pause] "Well? Aren't you going to tell me that hunting intelligent life-forms constitutes some violation of your weak Jedi sensibilities?"

Jacen: "My sensibilities are my own, sir, and I have no wish to impose them upon you."

Flennic: "And yet you want me to do what you tell me. Isn't that the same thing, boy?"

Jacen: "Not at all. I am merely explaining what, to me, would be your most prudent course of action at this moment. How you choose to respond to my opinion, of course, is entirely up to you."

Flennic: "But you won't like it if I ignore you, will you?"

Jacen: "If you ignore me, your people will be slaughtered. And no, I would not like that at all."

"You can't win. You can kill me—you can kill a hundred like me—but your precious Empire is still doomed. If the Rebels don't bring it down, it'll collapse from its own internal rot."―Lamos Chatoor, to Mara Jade[src]

"The Jedi are all about recruiting kids too young to know better, so there it was, me and all these serene little kids. You've never known real rage until you've been lectured on controlling your emotions by a four-year-old in a robe."―Guss Tuno, on his less-than-ideal Jedi training[src]

Captain: "You lied to me!"

Guss: "Uh, yes, and I would love to discuss that, but I—I was just on my way out. See, there's a, uh, a disturbance, uh, in the Force, uh…"

"That's one of the single most sickening things I've ever witnessed. Thanks for ruining the rest of my day. Humans."―Leaft, after seeing Klin-Fa Gi kiss Uldir Lochett[src]

Uldir: "If it's any consolation, nobody knows exactly what you feel when you cross the singularity of a black hole. It might be extremely painful when every atom in your body collapses into neutrons. And since time virtually stops, it could last a really long time."

"You fool. They are not dead. They simply escaped your foolish trap. You are a pathetic commander who must rely on wild schemes and inane plottings to make up for your lack of military competence."―Lira Wessex, to CaptainKolaff, on the escape of a group of Rebels[src]

Farfalla: "My Lord, for all your skill in battle and all your strength in the Force, you are somewhat lacking in the delicate art of diplomacy. You are a brilliant general, and your taciturn nature serves you well when giving orders to your troops. Unfortunately, it can set those who are not under your command on edge."

"Take what I have to teach you, Jacen. Take this place and the dark side power it contains. Take the knowledge that rests in its tombs on the world of Ziost. And use them against the forces that are trying to tear this galaxy apart. Restore order. Give your cousin, give the children in your family and your life the chance to grow up in a galaxy without war."―Lumiya, tempting Jacen Solo[src]

Luke: "So you see, there never was any real danger. All flash—no crash. Everybody happy?"

"Nuna-ball isn't all about seeing a noisy rodent punted 60 meters. Internal research tells us that seeing droids get their heads ripped off is equally popular."―Lysko Buelia, on the popularity of the game[src]

"Lieutenant, be advised that your weapon will require several decades of sustained fire in order to penetrate my shields at their current charge. Seeing as Republic SpecForce training is the best in the galaxy, I'm confident you'll find an alternative solution for my destruction. Good luck."―M1-4X, giving helpful suggestions on how to defeat him[src]

"Translate? Translate what? Oh! Oh, I see. Yes. Immediately. Master Lowbacca says, 'May no sun rise upon a day, nor any moon rise upon a night, in which he is not as honored to see you, and to be in your presence, as he is at this very moment.'" [Lowbacca growls] "Well, so what if I did embellish a bit? I was only attempting to make you sound more civilized." [Lowbacca growls] "Very well. Perhaps a better translation of Master Lowbacca's words would have been, 'The sun has never shined so brightly for this humble Wookiee as on this day we meet.'" [Lowbacca growls] "Well, have it your way then. But I assure you that my translations were much more refined. Ahem, What Master Lowbacca actually said was, 'I am pleased to meet you.'"―M-TD, introducing young Lowbacca to the other students at the Jedi Academy[src]

H2: "Love? I'm afraid that concept is not included in my programming. Or if it was, I can't remember it. But they yell at one another quite a lot, and that has several correlations to marriage in my data banks. So perhaps they are married."

Maitrakh: "The Noghri have always loved the stars. Once, long ago, we worshiped them. Even after we knew what they were they remained our friends. There were many among us who would have gladly gone with the Lord Vader, even without our debt, for the joy of traveling among them."

Leia: "I understand. Many in the galaxy feel the same way. It's the common birthright of us all."

Marr: "And there appears to be some interest in our recent…discovery."

Khedryn: "The signal, you mean? How did that leak to anyone?"

Marr: "If memory serves, and I am certain it does, the leak originated in your consumption of several jiggers of spiced pulkay combined with a desire to impress a trio of Zeltron dancing girls. I believe it worked."

"I know you're searching for me. Searching, searching. I am here. My voice is for you alone. I am found in your eyes only. I exist for you. I am in your mind as you create me. Oh, yes... I can feel my creation." [giggles] "I'm getting your message. Are you getting mine?"―Mermeia[src]

"The reason the Jedi Civil War was named such, was because few in the galaxy can recognize the difference between the Sith and the Jedi. To them, they are both Jedi—with different philosophies."―Mical[src]

Miel: «Wait, upstanding citizen! Under Article 11607 of the Emergency Service Laws, I hereby deputize you. These men are interfering in a criminal investigation.»

Captain: "Do I look like a deputy to you?"

Miel: «Yes, of course. The planet of Sullust values all sentient life-forms. I am proud to serve with you. Please, upstanding citizen. It is your duty to assist a designated peace officer requesting aid.»

Captain: "I don't stick my neck out for free."

Miel: «You will be paid appropriately for your duties as authorized by Amendment 102167 of the Sullustan Good Neighbor Act.»

"It's simple. When you want a man, you jab him with a Bothan stunner. Then while he's screaming in pain, slap some stun cuffs on him. Then starve him for two or three days until he becomes open to suggestion. Then double-check his bounty and see if he's worth anything."―Mira[src]

Mira: "Would you please shut him down? He's been like that ever since he arrived. ‘Here's how to kill this.’ ‘Here's how to kill that.’"

HK-47: "Correction: Assassination theory and execution of said theories is my primary function. I also possess excellent hearing."

Mirax: "My father used to bring me in here all the time when I was a kid. Some of these hard cases may be crusty on the outside, but they were very kind to me. Wuher, the bartender over there, used to synth up a sweet fizzy drink for me, and more than one of these guys would bring me little trinkets from the worlds they'd visited."

Corran: "I'd have loved to see those Immigrations forms. 'Purpose of the visit to our world?' 'Murder, mayhem, glitterstim smuggling, and purchase of a gift suitable for a small Corellian girl.'"

Mirax: [giggling] "Yeah, I imagine there a couple like that in databanks somewhere."

"Childish? Is that a crack about my age? You ain't much older than me, Miss High and Mighty. Just cause you're some Jedi, doesn't mean you can be a prissy little—" [trips and falls to the ground] "What the—? Hey....that wasn't funny!"―Mission Vao, to Bastila Shan[src]

"Rumor has it that Darth Vader is searching for Luke Skywalker. There is a large bounty for his capture, too. I suppose blowing up the Death Star was bound to attract Vader's attention. I would hate to be him. Actually, I'd hate to be ANY human."―MK-09, in an e-mail to Ace Azzameen[src]

A'baht: "Whatever waits for us, whether princess or dragon, we are called to embrace it. I am mindful of a Dornean war prayer I heard my own mother offer—'I pray that my son does not die today. But if he should die, I pray that he dies well. But most of all, I pray that if he lives, it will not be dishonor which preserves him.'"

"Well, in her career, she benefited the people of many worlds, and entered the folkloric cycles of several primitive cultures, where she often was merged with local historical figures or goddess-characters. Even today, educated immigrants from those cultures will write fictive cycles about her, some of them amazingly prurient."―Movac Arisster, on Aayla Secura[src]

Mudlath: "Now, you should admit it: you are here engaged in some military action against the Yuuzhan Vong, knowing full well that any action you take could embroil the people of this peaceful world in your destructive war."

Han Solo: "Isn't destructive war kind of redundant? Until I see a constructive war, or even a giggly war, I have to think so."

"Besides… Did you hear what Trey said? You're going to the Si'klaata Cluster. That's Hutt Space. I can stay here, wallow in the mud, and eat worms all day, and I'll still be in a cleaner, nicer place than you two will."―Myri Antilles[src]

Yolan: "No, not evil… he's little more than a machine, a tool to do a job. He's a man with no heart, no feelings, no interest other than the price on another man's head. We at least have something worth living and dying for. I pity Boba Fett."

Nam-aK: "I crafted a durable object of Gree ingenuity, perfectly-aligned for the needed maintenance. Pat-aK failed to impart the lethal conflict-enemies waiting on the level below. Many weapons and offenders despising my arrival. I fled Black Sun with my crafted solution intact, but the repair progresses unresolved. Coruscant's life-waters remain sluggish-stagnant without repairs. The hydrosupply must have my crafted solution."

Republic agent: "Can I take your crafted solution to the hydrosupply?"

Nam-aK: "You offer yourself as a black bisector? That is a gratifying unpredicted announcement! I pledge to provide items of Gree ingenuity in return. Take and apply my crafted solution to the hydrosupply. But do not apply before deactivating nearby flow-valves, or pressure-explosion-death will result! Be alerted, Black Sun green perpendicular will provide onslaught. May you experience blue tangent and return intact..."

Gurke: "You are stupid one, not me! You too stupid to even know you are stupid!"Narkal: "No, you are stupid one, stupid! You so stupid everyone see you and say look at stupid!"Gurke: "Shut UP, stupid!" *snort*— Gurke and Narkal, arguing like the good old Gamorreans they are[src]

"Ooo, look out, I'm a Jedi! I know things Too Dangerous for Ordinary Mortals! Careful! If you don't stand back, I might tell you something Beings Were Not Meant to Know!"―Nick Rostu, after Mace Windu reveals his mission on Haruun Kal[src]

Nick: "Y'know, I'm gonna give up asking if you're crazy. Let's consider it a standing question, huh? Every time you open your mouth, go ahead and assume I'm wondering if nikkle nuts have started falling out of your earholes. 'Good morning, Nick.' Are you crazy? 'Nice day, isn't it?' Are you crazy?"

"Your wars are decided by the death of a tenth of a population, a third of an army. Then the defeated surrender their honor and the victors surrender their advantage. This is called being civilized. The Yevetha are not civilized, General. It would be a mistake to deal with us as though we were."―Nil Spaar[src]

Ooryl: "Ooryl does not believe you do either. Ooryl does not sleep in the same manner as most others, so your occasional production of rhythmic nocturnal sound is not a problem. Ooryl finds it somewhat soothing, in fact."

"I didn't have a mother or a father, but a stranger willingly chose me to be his son. You had a mother and father, and they let strangers take you. No, General, don't pity me. You're the one who's had the worse deal."―Null ARC trooper Ordo, to Jedi KnightEtain Tur-Mukan[src]

Cilghal: "Two things. First, my name is not Fish-Head. It is Master Cilghal. Second, I am not in your way. That is a logistical impossibility. I am less than a meter wide. The entryway where we stand and the doorway behind me are several meters wide. I now leave it as an exercise of your alleged intelligence to find a way into the Temple. If you do a very good job, perhaps we will name the test after you."

"Rattatak is world of warriors and soldiers. For eons, we have battled one another for the right to rule. We knew nothing of the outside galaxy or your Republic, but still found new and inventive ways to kill one another."―Osika Kirske[src]

Ovin: "I've heard it said that being the Chief of State means when you speak, they have to be quiet. Tomorrow I intend to make them quiet long enough to repair some of the damage I've done. And then—I'm going to knock some heads together."

"There is no shame in falling. There is only shame if you refuse to rise once again."―Pernicar[src]

Hoth: "Why should they listen to you any more than me?"

Farfalla: "My Lord, for all your skill in battle and all your strength in the Force, you are somewhat lacking in the delicate art of diplomacy. You are a brilliant general, and your taciturn nature serves you well when giving orders to your troops. Unfortunately, it can set those who are not under your command on edge."

"The galaxy has a few noble individuals determined to make an honest living as independent freighter captains. These free-traders invest their life savings in their ship, labor long hours and work their bodies to the bone to make a fair credit. They're law-abiding entrepreneurs — and that's why they're not making money."―Platt Okeefe[src]

Plo Koon: "All walls hold dangers in palaces such as this. Walls are built not only to keep enemies out, but also in. However, even in a prison, one can find wondrous things upon which to reflect. Observe the infinite patterns of the grain… the richness of the color. Marvel at the elaborate carvings, and consider the time that was spent completing this artistry. I would suggest that you let your thought be piloted by the acknowledgment of beauty, not the apprehension of danger. A Jedi will certainly meet violence when it comes. Until then, the life around us begs our awe."

Q9-01: "NOT AT ALL. THE DISCUSSION OF PHILOSOPHY IS READILY DISCERNIBLE FROM A CALL TO ACTION."

Kyp: "I've noticed that."

Q9-01: "TO AVOID FUTURE MISUNDERSTANDINGS, HOWEVER, PERHAPS YOU SHOULD GIVE DIRECT ORDERS IN SECOND PERSON IMPERATIVE; FOR EXAMPLE, 'SET COORDINATES FOR THE ABREGADO SYSTEM,' OR 'DIVERT POWER TO THE REAR SHIELDS.'"

Kyp: "How about 'Report to the maintenance bay for a personality graft?'"

R0-4: "I'm afraid I cannot admit you without an appointment. Master Melan is a very busy Bothan. Nor can I bother him with every little thing. Perhaps I can arrange for you to see him in, oh, perhaps a standard week? Your names?"

Dash: "Okay, Goldie." [draws blaster] "My name is Man with a Blaster About to Cook You. Either you open the door or your busy Bothan is going to have to get himself a new receptionist."

R2-D2: "THAT'S NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS. IN ANY CASE, YOUR FACIAL FEATURE SET SUGGESTS THAT YOU DO NOT HAVE THE INTELLIGENCE TO RETAIN MY NAME FOR MORE THAN A NANOSECOND. IT IS EVIDENT THAT YOU HAVE BEEN TAUGHT TO REPEAT SOUNDS YOU HAVE HEARD AND THAT YOU UNDERSTAND NEITHER THE WORDS YOU HEAR NOR THE ONES THAT EMERGE FROM YOUR MOUTH."

Tarkin: "I do small favors for certain people. I once balanced these favors between opposing sides. Lately, my efforts have become a bit more lopsided. Balance is no longer necessary. Some of these people have an appreciation for fingers—not tentacles, my friend, not palps, but human fingers—reaching into a great many stellar soup bowls, testing the temperature to see if they are ready for the eating."

Sienar: "Why the concern that they be human?"

Tarkin: "Humans are the future, Raith."

Sienar: "Some of my best designers are not even remotely human."

Tarkin: "Yes, and we employ nonhumans wherever they are useful, for now. But mark my words, Raith. Humans are the future."

Zerimar: "Time was when Mando'ade rode war droids into deep space, no fancy hulls, raw vacuum that far from your shebs. That's how we won an empire. You going soft or something, Car'ika?"

Carid: "Oh, I know we were tough then. We'd go two weeks without breathing, and half a dead pygmy borrat was enough to feed a whole clan for a week. If any of our babies couldn't lift a beskad by the time they were weaned, we'd harden 'em up by catching them a full-grown Trandoshan and making 'em kill it with their pacifier and eat it raw. Ah, those were the days." [belch] "Pardon me. We're just too cultured and sensitive now, you know."

"I am Jedi Thul. I have not fought for real in many years. I should be a pushover. Come get me."―Raynar Thul, demonstrating what not to say to a squad of attacking Mandalorians in front of a squad of attacking Mandalorians[src]

Raynar: "I don't understand what you mean by 'There is no try.' You must have tried and failed at some time. No one can always succeed in what they want to do."

Luke: "I didn't say that I never fail. No Jedi ever becomes perfect. Sometimes, though, what we succeed in doing is not exactly what we intended to do. Focus on what you accomplished, rather than on what you merely hoped to do."

"It's so flawed that it looks as if all they're trying to do is to maroon as many generals in as many stupid places with inadequate support as they can."―Republic CommandoCorr comments on the overall strategy of the Clone Wars[src]

Reck: "Loyalties? What's loyalty worth on the open market?" [laughs] "Guys like you break me up, Han. Profiteers without the guts to change sides suddenly calling themselves patriots. I know who's coming out on top in this one, and I'll do whatever I have to, to live happily ever after."

Anakin: "Let me explain something to you. My name is Anakin Solo, and this is my friend Tahiri Veila. We are Jedi Knights, some of the people you came here to betray to the Yuuzhan Vong. If you lie to us, we'll know it. If you try to keep something from us, we'll find it out. The only uncertain factor is how much we'll have to damage you to do so."

"That's the way you like it, Jedi—isn't it? So save your Republic—but who'll save the Republic from you?"―Rohlan Dyre, to Malak[src]

"I know what real Mandalorians think. Sure, we didn't like to see the clans being beaten by Jedi—but we weren't humiliated, and we're not jealous. We're just annoyed at the people who lost. They bring a bigger gun? You fight harder. They bring the Force? You fight harder! If Mandalore the Indomitable had wanted to defeat Ulic Qel-Droma—he should have been more indomitable!"―Rohlan Dyre, recording an entry in Demagol's personal journal after helping defeat him[src]

"You have put up a valiant and brilliantly conceived fight, sir, but one which you shall inevitably lose, if only because I am willing to throw half the resources of civilization at you, should it prove necessary. I could bury you with dead bodies, and fill this entire nebula with the wrecks of ships, and I will."―Rokur Gepta, to Lando Calrissian, during the Battle of ThonBoka[src]

"Evasion or failure, on the part of any officer, at any level, to comply swiftly with this direct order will be punishable by summary revocation of all rank and privileges, judiciary and ceremonial impoverishment and sale into bondage of all family members within five degrees of consanguinity, and for the perpetrator himself, slow mutilation and death upon public display. I, Rokur Gepta, Sorcerer of Tund, command it."―Rokur Gepta, conveying orders to his fleet[src]

"General OrderWhile it should not be necessary to instruct officers of the line in their duties, some question has arisen as to the advisability of their writing their own orders upon no other discretion than the wish to preserve their ship or their personal interpretation of their purposes in being here.To resolve these uncertainties, and as an example for future individualists, the commanding officers of the Intractable, the Upright, and the Vainglorious are hereby stripped of rank, along with their seconds in command. Said command will revert to the third officer in succession, and the six above-mentioned personnel will be placed unprotected in an airlock, which shall be evacuated into empty space.By the authority of Rokur Gepta, Sorcerer of Tund."―Memo sent by Rokur Gepta to the fleet blockading the ThonBoka, after three captains request permission to move their ships[src]

"This war is not the first time I have encountered Jedi. When I was younger, I saw one in action against six raiders in my village. He pleaded with them to surrender — to allow him to be merciful. They refused. The fight lasted four seconds."―Rootrock, to Dass Jennir[src]

Rootrock: "My people have a saying—'Being brought low is the beginning of wisdom.'"

"WE HAVE FOUR POTENTIAL TARGETS, AND WE HAVE ONLY FOUR REMAINING SHADOW BOMBS AND NO LASER CANNONS. IF THAT IS NOT CHALLENGE ENOUGH, I CAN ALWAYS SHUT DOWN ANOTHER ENGINE."―Rowdy, going into battle with Jaina Solo[src]

"A STEALTHX EMITTING COMM WAVES IS NO LONGER A STEALTHX. IT IS JUST A POORLY ARMED, LIGHTLY ARMORED X-WING SAYING COME GET ME."―Rowdy[src]

San Hill: "Most of your internal organs are damaged beyond the repair of the finest surgeons. And you will have to surrender even more than you already have. You will no longer know the pleasures of the flesh."

Satele: "Metaphorically speaking, if is the smallest word in the Galactic Standard lexicon, yet it stands between us and our greatest dreams. Let it be a bridge, Shigar. It's time you crossed it. I will be waiting for you on the other side."

"I understand why your Council controls you. What I'll never comprehend is why you let them."―LordScourge[src]

"When you have lived centuries, you see that everything is a pattern that grows out of itself. Sometimes you can no longer see the trees, only the roots. It is the smallest part of the price of immortality."―LordScourge[src]

"However powerful, Vader is one, and we are many. No more debate. No more 'reflection.' No need of planning. Our prey comes to us. When he is dead, the Emperor will be crippled and know fear. And the galaxy will know the Jedi live."―Shadday Potkin[src]

Wedge: "Wes, the Wraiths don't want you anyway."Elassar: "That's right. You're unlucky."Dia: "I hate how serious he is all the time."Runt: "We don't like the way he chews his food."Shalla: "But we'll miss his rear end."

Face: "Forgive the intrusion, but we heard that the new vintage of Piggy was being decanted."

Lara: "But it looks like it's turned to vinegar."Dia: "And it's corked."Elassar: "I am pleased to meet you. I need you to kill me. Nobody else will."Janson: "To make sure you remember this little event, we've had some special things made up for you. Bacta-flavored candy. Bacta-flavored brandy. Bacta-flavored cheese."Shalla: "Kell and I worked up an instructional manual for you. It's called, How to Dodge."

Satele: "Metaphorically speaking, if is the smallest word in the Galactic Standard lexicon, yet it stands between us and our greatest dreams. Let it be a bridge, Shigar. It's time you crossed it. I will be waiting for you on the other side."

"During our short time together, one of the things that Mahdi repeated to me many times is that it is a journalist's duty to report the story, not to interfere with it. I hope that, just this once, you will forgive me for disobeying her."―Production assistant Shohta Laar, as he knocks Belok Rhal unconscious immediately after the latter murdered Madhi Vaandt[src]

Cavv: "It's a very strange business we're in, nephew. You steal a wallet and you get tossed in jail. You steal a man's wife and you get a bloody nose. But you steal something large enough, you get famous. A Super Star Destroyer! This will make us the greatest thieves who ever lived."

Sconn: "Or we'll die trying."

Cavv: "You know, you've been nothing but negative since we started this trip."

Dengar: "This is to be a routine assassination. By the book. You may already know the routine. Under Section 2127 of the Imperial Code, I am required to notify you that I have been hired to conduct a legal assassination in order to atone for crimes against humanity committed by you."

Hero of Tython: "If you kill everyone in the galaxy, you'll be Emperor of nothing. What's the point of all this?"

Sith Emperor: "You discern a fraction of reality. Beyond these stars exist other galaxies, other worlds, other beings. I will experience or ignore them as I wish. I will spend eternity becoming everything: a farmer, an artist, a simple man. When the last living thing in the universe finally dies, I will enjoy peace and wait for the cycle to begin again."

"I am Captain Soontir Fel. I will teach you how to fly and how to survive. If you think you know better than me, all I can teach you to do is die."―Soontir Fel, in his opening address to his class[src]

Han Solo: "We are clear to hyperspace. This will be the fastest ride you've ever had, Fel."

STK-CLR: "Of course you are." [grabs Ben by wrists and ankles] "You came through the freight system."

Ben: "Not everything that comes through the freight system is a stock item." [gets lifted into the air] "Put me down! And that's an override command."

STK-CLR: "Stock items are not authorized to issue override commands." [sprays barcode on Ben's robe] "You have been marked DEFECTIVE UNIT. Present yourself to the routing station on the far side of the delivery portal for return to your supplier."

Ben: "Sure, whatever you want."

STK-CLR: "Good. And relay my displeasure to your manufacturer. This is the Jedi Temple. We have acceptance specifications."

Tadar'Ro: "It is such a strange concept, to prophesy. To think that events are so firm. Like stone, rather than like wind and water and thought. And yet – he has seen things, and they have come to pass."

Ben: "Coincidence, or misinterpretation. People hear what they want to hear. Keep it vague enough, and a prophecy or prediction'll fit pretty much anything."

"I revere Qui-Gon, but he doesn't care that he looks like a bantha and smells like a Rodian! Not every word from his mouth is a pearl, despite what he himself may think."―Tholme gives his opinion on Qui-Gon Jinn to Quinlan Vos[src]

Thrackan: "All right. General Antilles, acting as Chief of State and Minister of War for Corellia, I hereby order you to communicate with your daughter Syal and do your genuine best to persuade her to follow whatever course of action I recommend to her. Is that clear enough?"

"Up until now I'd thought the Jedi were the most pompous, annoying gasbags in creation. But that was before I met you. You take the prize for the most preposterous, self-important, prolix fiasco I have ever seen. And on top of that—On top of that, sir, you are a fish! So sit down and shut up, before I take a harpoon to you!"―Thrackan Sal-Solo, to Pwoe[src]

Thrackan: "General Antilles, acting as Chief of State and Minister of War for Corellia, I hereby order you to communicate with your daughter Syal and do your genuine best to persuade her to follow whatever course of action I recommend to her. Is that clear enough?"

Wedge: "Absolutely."

Thrackan: "And?"

Wedge: "Go to hell."

Thrackan: "Antilles, you've refused a direct order given during a military crisis, and I have it on record. Should I choose to, I can have security agents haul you away right now. I can conduct your trial within the hour and have you executed by morning."

Wedge: "Of course you can. You could also have me assassinated in a time of peace for having nicer hair than you. If I worried about that sort of thing, I'd never get any sleep."

"You may be asking yourself, 'Why did my viewscreen turn itself back on after I shut it down? Too much of a good thing can be dangerous! Why, as much as I love Thurm Loogg -- because I know how much the Cartel loves me, and all of Cularin -- I do not know how much I can watch of him. It is so much like taking a lick of sugar, then another, and finally pouring the entire bag of sugar in my mouth because it tastes so good, I just cannot stop. This is what Thurm Loogg is like to me! I know this, and so I turned my viewscreen off, and yet, it is on again! Why, oh why?'"―Thurm Loogg[src]

"I must also regretfully inform you that the very popular image of the effulgent Thurm Loogg dressed as a Twi'lek dancing girl is not authentic. While the ceremonial lekku attached to my head are, in fact, ceremonial lekku attached to my head, it is the case that my head was removed from my body and attached to the body of a lithe young Twi'lek."Only in the picture, of course! It would be very uncomfortable, not to mention medically impossible, to actually remove my head and place it on another body. But what a laugh I had when I saw the picture for the first time! I must have laughed for minutes and minutes at the wonderful ingenuity of the people of Cularin. If only you spent as much time planning how to defend yourselves from invaders as you do playing with images of your friends from the Cartel, you might not get invaded so much."―Thurm Loogg[src]

"I must warn you, however, that not all of the pictures of the frolicsome Thurm Loogg that you find on your holonet are authentic. For instance, the one in which Thurm Loogg appears to be in the process of courting a rancor — this is not a real picture! Strange as it may seem, I have never actually had dinner with a rancor. I am told their table manners are such that any occasion that requires formal attire is probably inappropriate for them, and as I would never dream of eating dinner in anything less than formal attire, I do not generally dine with rancors."―Thurm Loogg[src]

"As your Jedi training progresses, many causes will call for you to use your powers on their behalf. But how can you know if the cause is one you should champion? You must learn to listen to the Force, and the Force will guide you. Hate and mistrust, domination, revenge – even glory – these are not the things a Jedi fights for. A Jedi defends justice, protects the weak from tyranny, and rescues those in harm's way – but always with the guidance of the Force."―Tionne Solusar, teaching at the Jedi Praxeum[src]

Hallis: "When I was walking around today, I met a young man who had no head. Just a stump that suggested he had a long, sad story to tell. But of course he couldn't, because he had no head. So I gave Whitecap to him. The man now has the voice and mannerisms of a 3PO unit, but they're better then nothing."

Darpen: "I was once a pilot. Briefly. Tierfon Yellow Aces. My talents lay elsewhere, though, so I ended up in a less violent service."

Janson: "His talents certainly did lie elsewhere. They weren't in landing. Tomer here made the Aces' list for a landing almost horrible enough to kill him two different ways. His Y-wing was shot to pieces and his repulsorlifts were dead. Had to land, though, or he'd never get dinner. Luckily we were based on a low-grav moon at the time, big long stretch of duracrete serving as a landing zone. All the other Y-wings clear off the landing zone and he lines up on it, descends toward it like he was landing an atmospheric fighter without repulsorlifts. Drops his skids as he gets close. The skids take the initial impact but he bounces, so he's like some sort of hop-and-grab insect all down the duracrete. But he's lucky enough that he stays top side up. Finally he's bled off a lot of momentum, but he loses control and his Y-wing rolls. Comes to a stop on its belly and he's safe. Then his ejector seat malfunctions and shoots him off toward space. With grav that low, he achieves escape velocity. We had to send a rescue shuttle up after him or he'd still be sailing through the void, one cold cadaver."

Darpen: "I saved the astromech. And the Y-wing was repairable."

Janson: "Sure. But seeing you as that wishbone skidded to a stop, seeing you sag in relief—and then, poof! you're headed toward the stars—"

Phanan: "A holdout, sir. A laser scalpel. Hard to distinguish from a writing tool without close inspection…and up close, I'm pretty effective with it."

Repness: "I'd say so. Did you surrender this weapon to our guards before coming before me?"

Phanan: "What weapon, sir?"

Repness: "The laser scalpel."

Phanan: "Not a weapon, sir. It's a tool of medicine. I wasn't asked to turn over my bandages, bacta treatments, disinfectant sprays, or tranquilizers either, but I can kill a man with any of them, under the right circumstances."

Phanan: "Well, if he's as good a code-slicer and intrusion expert as he is a pilot, he's, well, mediocre. Sort of warms your heart, doesn't it? To know our lives are in the hands of a mediocre slicer?"

Tyria: "I think that you left the profession of medicine because it's your nature to make everyone feel worse about everything."

Phanan: "Ooh. I've been skewered. I will now take seventeen hours to reevaluate my life."

"Tyria, I've just met you, and already I love you. And don't think I love you for your looks, which are stunning, or your body, which is stellar, or your manner, which is bold and inflames me with desire. No, I love you because I hear you're a Jedi in training, and I need all the powerful friends I can get."―Ton Phanan, to Tyria Sarkin[src]

Tyria: "Some women see a man who is a mess, feel the urge to repair his problems, and then fall in love with him while they're working on him."

Tainer: "Emotional distress as an attractant. Say, Tyria, I have a sharp pain in my childhood memories."

"There's not a finer sight in the galaxy than gassed rebels running out of a cave into the waiting blasters of your own battalion. Well—perhaps sunrises. But for those, you have to wake up early."―Surveillance Officer Trecht — Listen(file info)[src]

Trey: "And in kidnapping a celebrity with some inter-planetary fame, we have ensured that the civilian news will hear about Thaal and that civilian authorities will launch their own investigations. Not to mention the musicians' unions. You don't want to mess with the musicians' union."

Drikall: "Really?"

Trey: "No, I'm kidding. What they going to do, serenade you to death?"

Pellaeon: "This is not a cattle market on Shaum Hii, Lieutenant Tschel. This is the bridge of an Imperial Star Destroyer. Routine information is not—repeat, not—simply shouted in the general direction of its intended recipient. Is that clear?"

"Volpau, third cousin of Emperor Palpatine, died on Ubuuga of unknown causes. On his way to Coruscant for ritual incineration. You hear that? Unknown causes! Biggest killer there is, unknown causes!"―Tsumo[src]

Phanan: "Well, if he's as good a code-slicer and intrusion expert as he is a pilot, he's, well, mediocre. Sort of warms your heart, doesn't it? To know our lives are in the hands of a mediocre slicer?"

Tyria: "I think that you left the profession of medicine because it's your nature to make everyone feel worse about everything."

Phanan: "Ooh. I've been skewered. I will now take seventeen hours to reevaluate my life."

Uldir: "If it's any consolation, nobody knows exactly what you feel when you cross the singularity of a black hole. It might be extremely painful when every atom in your body collapses into neutrons. And since time virtually stops, it could last a really long time."

Umak Leth: "An ionic cannon capable of surprising and wiping out entire capital ship task forces would require a ship of unreasonable proportions. Something on the magnitude of at least eight kilometers in length."

"Get a reputation and get it fast. If you're known as a hard-but-fair raider, prizes are much more likely to roll over. Do not get a bloodthirsty reputation – that way leads to higher bounties and freighters returning fire to avoid boarding action. If you scare the target too much, it panics. If it panics, it does something stupid. If it does something stupid, your profits go right out the airlock."―Urias Xhaxin, on the art of galactic piracy[src]

Farfalla: "My Lord, for all your skill in battle and all your strength in the Force, you are somewhat lacking in the delicate art of diplomacy. You are a brilliant general, and your taciturn nature serves you well when giving orders to your troops. Unfortunately, it can set those who are not under your command on edge."

"A Jedi does not use his powers to manipulate the minds of his friends. Even if your motives are pure, it is an abuse of your position and a betrayal of the trust others put in us."―Valenthyne Farfalla, to Johun Othone[src]

Veela: "Brother Canderous vouched for you, so you can stay, but if you betray us, I'll kill you. If your weakness causes one of my people to get hurt, I'll kill you. If you slow us down, I'll kill you. Is that clear?"

Revan: "Wait…what was that second one again? Maybe I should write this down."

Luke: "You're a clever young woman, Vestara. It took us quite a while to realize that you hadn't paid Monarg for repairs to the yacht, that you'd sold it to him for just enough to send your message home. And then begun running around the rain forest to draw us off, as a diversion."

Vestara: "It was an interesting tour. And then, of course, I met the Nightsisters and dedicated myself to their destruction."

Luke: "Yes, of course. Ben, roll your eyes for me, would you? I'm out of practice."

Ben: "Yeah, you are. I would be, too. You're about to meet a whole bunch of people who not long ago were your sworn enemies and say, Hi there, I used to be Sith but not anymore. It's okay because I'm dating the most amazing, best-looking, smartest Jedi in the—ow!"

Vill: "The miners have surrendered, my Lord. The last survivors are being rounded up. I have our casualty reports—fourteen dead, twenty-three wound—"

Vader: "Commander Vill, I have a question. I require a truthful answer."

Vill: "Uh, of course, sir."

Vader: "The Emperor foresaw that the Jedi would attempt to thwart his move to consolidate the Republic into an Empire. He prepared you—prepared all of the clones—by indoctrinating you with instructions for Order 66…"

Vill: "Yes, sir?"

Vader: "Have you been indoctrinated with a similar order to attack me if the Emperor so commands?"

Vill: "Uh, sir…even if there were such an order, I do not have the authority to divulge…GAK!" [Vader chokes him and throws him off a cliff]

"Look, money is important, sure, but if money was all we were after, we'd be Neimoidians. We go work in senate or business where they steal big time. The reason any of us do this-- is game. Are you smarter then next guy? Quicker? Sneakier? Can you put one over on them? Take what you didn't earn? Hit them in head? Shoot them in back? Money is prize. Is how you know who wins. Too much money makes you fat-- target for others. No, get money, spend money, have good time. Go out and grab more. All the game."―Vilmarh Grahrk, describing the life of a scoundrel[src]

D'ulin: "I know the difference between a demon and a Devaronian and I'd rather trust a demon. You play us false and there is no place in the galaxy you can go that I won't find you."

"It is, in my mind, essential that all remember the sacrifices that so many made to bring this New Republic about. If I have learned anything from my studies, it is that freedom is too precious a commodity to be taken for granted. As our ancestors learned, it can be snatched away in an instant."―Voren Na'al[src]

Parck: "On one side were handpicked units of Palpatine's own private army, equipped with fifteen top-line combat ships. On the other side were Commander Mitth'raw'nuruodo of the Chiss Expansionary Defense and perhaps twelve small and insignificant border patrol ships."

Vrook: "You are a breach that must be closed. You transmit your pain, your suffering through the Force. Within you, we see something worse than merely the teachings of the Sith. What you carry may mean the death of the Force... and the death of the Jedi."

Exile: "But I can feel the Force, strongly."

Vrook: "So you think. It is not the strength of a Jedi you feel."

Zez-Kai: "He's right. It's... all the death you've caused to get here. You feed on it, and you grow stronger. You're like Malachor... it's in you, it's what you are now. You must have noticed as you've fought across all these planets, killing hundreds – only to become more and more powerful. Why do you think that was?"

"I know nothing about what's going on. I spent the entire night in the Confiscated Properties Room at Constabulary headquarters, sandwiched between bales of illicit smoking vegetables and wire baskets overflowing with vibroknives, murder hatchets, and the like. Did you know that most of the spouse killings in this system are accomplished with cast-titanium skillets?"―Vuffi Raa[src]

Captain: "You get me in to free Numen, I can set you up with a lot of stims. Free."

Wicke: "I-I couldn't. They'd kill me if they found out. Of course, they'd already kill me for talking to you. And buying stims. And sometimes saying 'fail to the Empire' under my breath when we renew our oaths of service..."

«These Rebels are like the Ewoks, who are like the leaves. Battered by the wind, eaten without thought by the tumult of locusts that inhabit the world—yet do we throw ourselves on smoldering fires, that another may know the warmth of light; yet do we make a soft bed of ourselves, that another may know rest; yet do we swirl in the wind that assails us, to send the fear of chaos into the hearts of our enemies; yet do we change color, even as the season calls upon us to change. So must we help our Leafbrothers, these Rebels—for so has come a season of change upon us.»
―Wicket Wystri Warrick, translated by C-3PO, pleading with the EwokCouncil of Elders to aid the Rebel Alliance[src]

Wicket: "This old chart points the way to a lost temple."

Latara: "It sounds awful."

Wicket: "It says the temple was built by an ancient race of creatures..."

"I can't define a hero. All I know is that it's someone you probably don't notice, but when you find out what they did and how modestly they did it, you can never shake off the feeling that you're cut from a lesser cloth, and you find that braggarts suddenly offend you a great deal more than usual."―AdmiralWullf Yularen[src]

Obi-Wan: "You seem to be suggesting that I take unnecessary risks. I can't agree. I only ever do what I feel is right."

Yularen: "And rarely stop to think of the personal consequences. You and Skywalker are cut from the same cloth. And that little Padawan of his—she's been fashioned out of the discarded material!"

"Eat your vegetables, children, or Admiral Daala will come for you."―Wynn Dorvan, cracking a joke about increasing public resentment against Daala[src]

Dorvan: "We realize that you don't care for the public at large to know that you have ethics and would in fact try to fulfill your duty to the Galactic Alliance here. So the exact terms of this deal won't be revealed. Just an announcement that former Chief of State, Jedi Leia Solo, and Alliance hero and scoundrel Han Solo are making an effort to resolve the disputes between the government and the Jedi."

"Kill Fey'lya? What would we want to do that? He is far too valuable in his position for the Yuuzhan Vong to want him removed. An ineffectual coward leading a republic is the perfect foe when you plan on taking over."―Yarmond offers his opinion on Fey'lya's leadership abilities[src]

Yolan: "No, not evil… he's little more than a machine, a tool to do a job. He's a man with no heart, no feelings, no interest other than the price on another man's head. We at least have something worth living and dying for. I pity Boba Fett."

Yuthura: "I wanted to use the Force to free the other slaves I knew, to fight for what I knew was right. The Jedi restrained me until I couldn't stand it any more. They claim the dark side is evil, but that isn't so. Sometimes anger and hatred are so deserved and right. Sometimes things change because of it."

Revan: "But not always. Mostly it makes things worse."

Yuthura: "Any failure to get the results I want is due to a lack of power on my part. That can change, in time. As a Sith, my mettle is tested far more than when I was a Padawan. I know this may sound strange, but only my compassion stands in my way now. Once that is gone, let the slavers beware."

Revan: "But... if you lose your compassion, will you still care about those slaves?"

"The Force is a great ally, and it can lead you where you need to go. But you must always be open to follow. If you decide you already know where it is leading, you may take the wrong path. Be aware. Observe, but do not assume."―Master Zao, teaching a lesson to K'Kruhk and the Soaring Hawkbat Clan[src]

"Zekk to Hardpoint Squadron. Your new squadron commander is on-site and wishes to see you immediately at your X-wings. Immediately means ninety seconds from the end of my transmission. No one will be punished for arriving in dirty robes, formal gowns, or bubbles and bathwater, but no one wants to arrive late. That is all. Out."―Zekk, gathering Hardpoint Squadron through his comlink[src]

Jaina: "It might take some effort to find her, but I'd bet my shirt that Alema is here."

Vrook: "You are a breach that must be closed. You transmit your pain, your suffering through the Force. Within you, we see something worse than merely the teachings of the Sith. What you carry may mean the death of the Force... and the death of the Jedi."

Exile: "But I can feel the Force, strongly."

Vrook: "So you think. It is not the strength of a Jedi you feel."

Zez-Kai: "He's right. It's... all the death you've caused to get here. You feed on it, and you grow stronger. You're like Malachor... it's in you, it's what you are now. You must have noticed as you've fought across all these planets, killing hundreds – only to become more and more powerful. Why do you think that was?"

Soldier #1: "Hold it! Where's the transfer-circuit adjuster I left lyin' right here? Who took it?"

Soldier #2: "It's being used to repair the Millennium Falcon."

Soldier #1: "Oh it is, huh? Who does Solo think he is? I got a good mind to go over there and take it right back outta his hand. What does he think, he owns this base? In fact, I think I will go over there and—"

Soldier #2: "It was the Wookiee who took it."

Soldier #1: "Uh, Chewbacca?"Soldier #2: "You know any others? Well? Gonna go over and yank it out of his paw?"Soldier #1: "Well, now, there must be another one around here someplace…"

"While the Emperor refuses to acknowledge the efforts by the Rebel Alliance, he would like to issue an official 'Bah, humbug!' to those participating in the holiday."
―A publicist for EmperorPalpatine, commenting on Life Day in 3 ABY[src]

"AT-STs will no longer be deployed on planets with an abundance of trees or other known obstacles such as rock-wielding primitives."―Post-Battle of Endor Imperial manual[src]

"Best I can hope for is a long life and a merry oneA quick death and an easy oneA fast ship and a sturdy oneA tall ale and another one"

"They are as stars in the sky, numerous, but ancient. The light they offer was generations old when the first settlers came to Cularin. They burned out long ago, but only now do we see the dark they will leave behind."―A Cularin resident on the Jedi Order[src]

"Welcome to the Stenness Spaceport. Docking facilities are located on levels twenty-three, twenty-four, and twenty-five. Food troughs are located on levels fifty, through fifty-three. Brothels are located on levels fifty-four through one-thousand."

"Let the family know what I'm doing. You don't have to glorify it, but don't demean it either. One day you'll understand, I hope, and on that day I pray this will all have been a bad dream from very long ago. I love you and may the Force be with you."―Rebel pilot, writing home before Battle of Yavin[src]

"The planetary perimeter shield will open in exactly 3.2 seconds. Follow your pre-arranged flight path, or you will be vaporized. If you make any sudden maneuvers, you will be vaporized. If you deviate from your course by one degree, you will be vaporized. Welcome to the planet Byss."
